The England Cricket Thread

Only light rain forecast for today, so there will likely be some play.

Monday however will be a total wash-out, but England won't make it to Monday unless the rain gods help them today.
 
Awkward dismissal. The ball has come in off the onside leg. Buttler has tried to flick it off his pads with a reverse sweep, but it catches the edge and nurdles its way to Starc at right fine leg. Good low catch there.
 
Must be one of the shortest 5 match series in Ashes history in terms of time played. (not accounting for weather of course)
I'm sure I read somewhere that it is the joint shortest 5 Test series in terms of days played. Thought it was on BBC Sport somewhere but can't find the source.
 
Ali. Australia wins by an innings and 46 runs. Nice consolation prize for Clarke.

You must surely be joking? A consolation prize, comfortably losing an away Ashes series and having a terrible batting average whilst doing so?

There'll be very little consolation for Clarke here, he's gone out in ignominious fashion as a wannabe-Ponting-thug, without the talent to back it up in the end.

When are we going to get an Australian cricket captain with class, rather than one that wants to 'break everyone's ****ing arm'?
